PEER PRESSURE

WHY DO YOU EXPECT ME
TO DELIVER THE GOODS ON TIME
WHY DO YOU SAY ALWAYS
THAT I AM NOT GOING FINE

WHY DO YOU EXPECT IN THE VERY FIRST PLACE
WHY DO YOU DRIVE STUDENTS IN THE FILTHY RAT RACE
A SECOND IS PESTERED TO TRY FOR FIRST
A FIRST FOR EVEN MORE
A FOURTH OF WHAT’S THOSE THREE
A LAST FOR A DECENT SCORE…………….

IF ITS LOVE THAT BRINGS FORTH THIS
IF THE PAINFUL MIND
THEN WHY DO WE TAKE THE TROUBLE TO
MARK IT IN CASH AND KIND

HEY! YOU DON’T YOU KNOW THE EXPECTATION OF YOURS
ARE CAUSING MORE HARM THAN GOOD FOR SURE……

TENSION CREEPS INTO THE CHILD
AS THE DESIRE GOES HIGHER
INFLATION OFTEN CAUSES THE CHILD
TO ECOME A FLATTENED TYRE

DO NOT EXPECT DO NOT SHOW
JUST APPLAUD AND APPRECIATE
FOR THAT WHICH WILL COME OF GOOD
NOT IF YOU IRRITATE

IT’S NOT THE EXPECTATION THAT I HIT
BUT THE CONSEQUENCES FROM IT
THE TENSION PRESSURE THAT IT PUTS ON US
ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPID FUSS……………..

But ask me to justify my love...   I wouldn't , not if I am slain..     Cause, I have seen it all, known it all...  Quick sand, is not just for the beaches...  It has drained life, breath, blood and love,  let alone petty riches..     Cause, I have seen it all, known it all, ti...

Its All Coming Back To Me

They say that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Now some purist might just pounce upon me and question why or how dare i refer " Sir Isaac Newton" as a relative pronoun. But the point is, its not physics that I am talking about . Rather the matter that intrigues me is the fact that how come life gives a chance to everyone to get even. Yes call it destiny, or misfortune for some, but the gains made by one is always at someone else's expense. Success is fleeting. Status is even more vague. For these never lasts just as long as you would like them to be. Its a easier up-shift rather than climbing down the stairs in society , but when you are sometimes pushed up, its inevitable that you would surely be grounded sooner or later. The facts that have inspired me, ranges far in the plains of Africa. I saw a Pride Of Lions on discovery. A Pride of Three lionesses , A Lion and their bunch of six month old cubs. The fact that these scenes were not fleeting as any...
